SanDisk on Monday announced a new, pencil-thin video MP3 player that appears likely to go head-to-head with Apple’s newly upgraded iPod nano. The new Sansa View combines MP3 playback capabilities with full-motion video support, a large screen, long battery life and generous capacity. Perhaps even more notable, the device also boasts an optional 8 GB microSD/microSDHC card for memory capabilities of up to 24 GB. Due in October, the Sansa View will carry a suggested retail price of $199.99 for a 16 GB flash-based player or $149.99 for a 8 GB version.
